HUMOR, JOKESThis is from my original site, will divide it into several pages here in order to be able to include a pic. After all, they're funny. :)
Next, I've actually had some ask me why the devotee should care about [what may appear to them as] a mundane thing like humor?
My opinion?
First, those opposed to humor, finding it fickle, especially they've said it's Maya, may be the the very devotees who need it the most!
These often are the grumpiest, or most fanatical. Some think fanaticism means "fixed up." Actually most older devotees experience of fanatics, saw many out of the blue fall down, startling us. Fanaticism can mean weak, tho actually can be used as protection - as long as they do it honestly, & cause no harm to others. Including no emotional harm by insisting everyone be a carbon copy of themselves.
Similarly, to go the other extreme, thinking that as a way to avoid fanaticism, or avoid rebellion thru ummm rebelling ha by going this other extreme [geesh], plus other beliefs used to justify not following rules/regs etc - indicates the exact opposite. For example, it sounds more like not caring "enough" to stick up for rules & regs, or refusal to challenge their comfort zone & face it as wrong. We're such extremists in this age. Let us try to find balance.
Tho will say, once in a while any of the above may be personalities with emotional issues. Yet, all the more reason they laugh! :)
Maintaining the variegated, above mentioned, hang-ups, in turn, effects the health of the critics of humor. Including spiritual health. Sure, I agree it'd be nice if every single joke here was related to Krishna Consciousness, but its kali yuga folks, I do the best with what comes my way.
Next, let us remember, Krishna made many laugh! There is nothing wrong spiritually with laughter. As long as they are harmless, clean jokes.
Then we also need to keep in mind, devotees need to live a long time in order to share Krishna with everyone. Health benefits of laughter have now been proven medically. So laugh a little. Then you can preach/share better. :)
What follows are excerpts from my former web page:

INTRODUCTION
As we begin to age, our health starts to deteriorate. The material body is not built to last forever. In this modern era of pollution, poor diet or gardening soil, we need to educate ourselves & not throw in the towel, because there are things we can do.
I decided to read "Anatomy of an Illness" by Norman Cousins. The short of it is: He was diagnosed with an incurable illness that he cured through the use of Belly Laughter, Vitamin C therapy, & Medicine.
Briefly: while many feel they'll merely start taking a lot of Vitamin C after reading his book, I realize there can be bad side effects even to this when we don't know 'fully' what we're doing. Therefore all should seek the help of a licensed medical practitioner.
With that said...... Norman Cousins has also given significant evidence that the laughter was more than just a placebo, rather had scientific, beneficial, medical effect on his health. I felt so hopeful and inspired by his writings that I feel it's time we all started to lighten up a little and laugh. Who knows, it may even prolong our lifespan.
The thing about humor is, what tickles one persons funny bone may not tickle someone else. The medical benefit from laughter, Norman Counsins pointed out, was the greatest when he laughed so hard with a ten minute belly-roll type of laugh.
While not all jokes here hit me to that degree, many do, & most are pretty darn good. I've tried my best to put some real belly-roll jokes here.
I'll also interweave a few quotes from his book [from amazon.com] which may help some like myself who need a scientific basis to keep doing this.
Lets start with this one from Anatomy of an Illness, pg 40
"How scientific was it to believe that laughter - as well as the positive emotions in general - was affecting the body chemistry for the better? If laughter did in fact have a salutary effect on the body's chemistry, it seemed at least theoretically likely that it would enhance the system's ability to fight the inflammation. So we took sedimentation rate readings just before as well as several hours after the laughter episodes. Each time, there was a drop of at least five points." [A drop is a good thing.]
Additionally, as I find other scientific data proving the healing effects of laughter, I will interweave them here as well.
Please read this DISCLAIMER:
Religious, as well as other humor, are needed so we can all lighten up as well as get along. I have done my best to use only clean jokes and those in good taste. Please do not take anything personal. We're just trying to laugh at ourselves (and others) to make it easier to approach such topics. My apologies if you find anything here objectionable. Please know it was not the intent.
Ready? Ok let's go! :)

New saying: I like my reality, stop trying to change my mind. :)
[I dedicate this joke to New age and religious fanatics who tried to convert me as well as psychoanalyze me with such idioms. The reality is, it is they who did not like who I am: a Hare Krishna devotee with zero interest in psychobabble. :) I'm not against therapy, even feel it can be helpful for a period of time. Simply, no one should "play" therapist. And others in need of it, please go to a college educated, qualified licensed therapist who also has a good success record, and not offensive to Krishna Consciousness.]

Q) Is it possible for some people to get addicted to therapy?
A) Yes, but how would you treat them? :)
I dedicate this joke to a certain friend or two, who have been doing therapy for 25 years etc, still insist they need it, darn near preach therapy more, & Krishna Consciousness less. IMHO, if ya aint getting better, that taint what ya need. :-) But oh well, to each their own. [Please know, I am still friends with them.]
Once read a book that stated it should take 6 months to a 1 & 1/2 years to become cured in therapy.
IMHO, if the reason for going is emotional [not chemical imbalance] and severe, likely the person needs a little more time. If such persons are going to counseling for decades, may I merely offer ideas, to take OR to leave.
And some are questions, which have no right or wrong answer - hopefully to lead you to solutions on your own:
IDEAS:
* Change therapists [& make sure the new one has a good track record, as you should not have to pay them forever].
* Sometimes we reject hearing truths from friends but are willing to hear it from counselors. What's going on with "that? Figure it out.
* Add new [wisely selected] friends into life, because folks often go to counseling for what our grandmothers resolved over the back fence to their neighbor/friend, or granddad at the barber shop.
* Must friends walk as if on broken glass to keep you at peace? And must they always agree with you? [We're not talking about breaking Krishna C rules & regs 'etc' here, but how to tie shoelaces, or cook, or live their understanding of Prabhupada's lifestyle.]
* Do you say they don't have to agree with you, only later to become inwardly angry when they don't? OR outwardly? :-) That passive/aggressive thing? [Work on it, if it applies.]
* Regardless what you do, is your tendency to get fanatical, where you're a little OCDish [not necessarily OCD], and difficulty detaching to move forward, or toward something /situations/ persons - new? [New does not mean other than Krishna Consciousness, it means finding something else and peace within Krishna Consciousness.]
*Are you in denial over needing medication, or a better diet that supplies serotonin like Flax or Chia Or Hemp Oils - Omega 3's? If a therapist or counselor can't get you back on your own two feet in a couple of years or less, this could be why. They never will be able to for those who are in need of the nutrient Omega 3.So, if jumping from therapist to therapist, or one "in-thing" to the next, author after author, healer after healer - at least consider one reason nothing has a lasting effect could be this need. And it's now easily available in nonviolent forms as touched on above. There are also other nutrient deficiencies that may come into play regarding brain health as well as emotional health, just too little time to get into. Investigate, but stop hoping around with the latest psychology. If it hasn't worked after 2ish years, there's a reason for that.
* When things are not functioning, can you take honest self-inventory to see "If" you contributed, & what you can do to improve?
* Similarly but the opposite, do you take the blame for everything, & seldom notice if those you've surrounded yourself with need to be informed to treat you better? Can you find polite words to express this?
* Have you made a therapist as if Guru? [Or a guru a therapist?!] And do you have trouble making decisions, therefore want regular advice from a counselor? [Advice 'once in a while' from anyone is okay. But should not regularly require it, and the final choice is your responsibility.]
* Can you admit if you need professional help? [Really, it's not a big deal anymore, resolves draining issues, saves future pains too. According to the book "I" read, therapy is usually temporary!]
* Many have healed themselves through [qualified, not New Agey/trippy] self help books as much as with a therapist. If you truly need such help, there's no shame in buying a couple of these. They work! That's been proven. Tho if you tend to get addicted to therapists or counselors, make sure not to get addicted to books or authors. One, 2, maybe 3 books at most, should do it. Then push them aside, detach. ...And please do not go around analyzing or diagnosing others, that's yet another problem: "Codependency." Books are for you - and your alone.
* Do you need to weed toxic people out of your life who you're attached to? Simultaneously, is it too easy to label them toxic & kick them out because you don't know the right words to express your needs? [Find the middle, plus do the right thing.]
* Can you locate & bring whole and balanced devotee friends into your life?
* Have you considered doing things to become the kind of friend you would desire, in order to attract the right kind of devotees to yourself, or their higher nature? As well as also have something to offer them? [Please do so.]
Yes, I realize I said not to play therapist. Hey, its a joke page, right? lol Seriously, I've no interest in becoming anyone's therapist. Even, I do not enjoy talking like this much, simply what I like even less is the idea that some devotees are behaving as if long term therapy can fix something Prabhupada can not, and preaching therapy to devotees that do NOT need it. Every little problem does not indicate the need for a Counselor. But it appears they think everyone needs it, thus they preach it. sigh. Maybe their notice of every little thing as a 'trigger' is hypersensitive and over-reactive, needing to look within instead of without.
Fortunately they never come out and say they believe "long term therapy can fix something Prabhupada can not." On a deeper level they likely know its untrue. I simply wanted to offer alternatives, such as an increase of friendships, and to DO something for yourself in order to be a more wholesome friend.
We attract to ourselves a version of who we are, OR the level of consciousness we present. Anarthas we've not uprooted can come to us through those we like. Because on some level we like the anartha, it offers some form of payoff making it worth discomfort. But don't blame the friend, they probably want to uproot stuff too. Don't blame anyone, as all prefer a higher consciousness, as do you. So just do needed purification - even if its in a counselors office.
Continuing the list.... truthfully increase tolerance [or tell others you ...YOU... can't handle talking about yada yada]. Go after a better diet. Learn something new that's helpful & pleasant.
Especially, spend more time reading the "parts" of Prabhupada's books that inspire you [be honest when you do this one cuz reality is, sometimes this is way over our head & then we translate with our material understandings, thinking its not material understanding. Stick with the bliss under such circumstances]. OR read his almost always encouraging instructions to disciples in his letters - give this increased time and watch your spirits lift, life change!
Now there are some cases where counseling is needed, If ya need one, go! Just make sure you are healed in a sensible period of time.
Plus, those diagnosed with a chemical brain imbalance [Clinical depression, Bipolar, etc] might need therapy for life [or might not need it for life]. Even after 1 1/2 years etc, the sessions should include on something called "Cognitive" therapy, which specializes on training appropriate responses, understanding better wording to use, basically helps keeps one in relationships/friendships in such ways.
Now sometimes the therapist may be needed to untwist some psychological confusion, misunderstandings, stinking-thinking. But it should not always require untwisting. Learn the "how to's" of life in order to avoid offending friends, children, spouses, Vaisnava's of the Lord. And any therapist should be nice, someone you like, as well as favorable.

Did you hear about the guy who called the police because he saw some people stealing things out of the shed in his back yard?
The police asked him if they were in his house.
He replied: "No."
Then the police said all units were busy, he should lock his doors. They'd send someone as soon as they could.
The guy hung up, waited 30 seconds, and called back:
"I just called you about the people stealing things out of my shed. Well, don't worry about it, I shot them."
In less than five minutes, police cars screeched into his driveway, sirens blaring, and caught the thieves red-handed.
"I thought you said you shot them," said the officer.
"I thought you said no one was available," he replied.

With all the trauma and sadness going on in the world at the moment, it's worth reflecting on the death of a very important person which almost went unnoticed.

The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin.
They put his left leg in, and then it fell out, they put his right leg in and tried to move it all about...and that's when the trouble did start.
